On January 1, 2012, Uncle Company purchased 80 percent of Nephew Company’s capital stock for $680,000 in cash and other assets. Nephew had a book value of $828,000 and the 20 percent noncontrolling interest fair value was $170,000 on that date. On January 1, 2011, Nephew had acquired 30 percent of Uncle for $348,250. Uncle’s appropriately adjusted book value as of that date was $1,127,500.

      Separate operating income figures (not including investment income) for these two companies follow. In addition, Uncle declares and pays $15,000 in dividends to shareholders each year and Nephew distributes $2,000 annually. Any excess fair-value allocations are amortized over a 10-year period.
